 To the Mid-State Conference, we go. Park Rapids area playing hostess Staples Motley. Let's go to the second visitors threatening. Thomas Kassen finds some grass and left. That scores at a run and cuts the deficit to two, but the Panthers offense would awaken. Tristan Pearson with a gapper to the outfield. That plates two. Park Rapids leads 5-1 and later in the inning doesn't get any prettier than this. The Suicide squeezed by Sam Eastead for the RBI, but they're not done yet. Nathan David takes his turn on the hit parade. That's good enough for two more to score. Park Rapids would, or Staples Motley would go on to win game one 5-4, but Park Rapids area would win the second 15 to one.
